Thank you, Chair.
I will point out that the Speaker of the House of Commons ruled on the point that was just made, and ruled against that argument in his ruling in the House yesterday.
He also pointed out that the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians Act makes clear that despite its composition, the body is not a committee of Parliament. That's why the ruling was made.
Going forward, Mr. Stewart, do you believe that your opinion on this matter supersedes an order of Parliament and a ruling of the Speaker of the House of Commons?
